Notes: because it has the Vienna I mashed for an hour instead of steeping, this popped the top of my carboys, had to clean the hoses twice and had a 5 inch krausen ring around the top. I let it age in the 36 range in my conditioning kegs for 7 days after a 10 day fermentation, pulled off into a serving keg and taste notes: a very roasted flavor with high alcohol back end, the hops disappeared as expected but balanced the sweetness perfect with this yeast! carbonation can be lowered to keep the bite away, nice smooth sipper on a cold winter night.
I fermented down to 12 so a 7.88 on the alcohol
This is a winner!
notes: use 90 instead of 120 or less 120 for less of a roasted flavor if needed
you will need 2 yeasts for a 5 gallon container so 4 for this batch even with a starter, I made a 2000ml starter over night and put 4 inches of foam on top of each carboy |

Notes: V1.0 Tasting Notes: This beer was one of the best beers I have ever made. Made in January 2014; will make again.
V2.0 Tasting notes: So much less body in this beer. It is the caramunich 3 for certain. Would bump up the mash temps to 158 and would add more melanoidin and unfermentables. The beer is just a bit thin for the guidelines, it needs the body to justify the lack of hops. Look for what to do again in version 1 not this one. |

| Notes: This has got to be an original light beer. Low abv, no other fermentables other than the molasses, final beer has almost no head, fair co2 sparkle with the 1 drop per bottle a noteable malasses flavor, though not overpowering, and the hops flavor and bitterness balances it out pretty well. Would definetly consider this a cooking beer, but it was fun trying to recreate this recipe, and did indeed produce a drinkable brew. You probably would not want to brew this in large quantities or all that often. |

Of course I have no real facility to ferment at lager temperatures so this is a california lager.
